Was Mamoru the reincarnation of Prince Endymion?
Mamoru Chiba (地場衛, Chiba Mamoru) is the present-day incarnation of Prince Endymion and the civilian identity of Tuxedo Mask (タキシード仮面, Takishiido Kamen) in the 90's anime. He has short black hair and blue eyes.
The kanji in Mamoru's surname translate as "earth" (地, chi) and "place" (場, ba). Together, they form the term "local," with a pun on his identity as Endymion, Prince of Earth. His given name means "protect" (衛, mamoru). Originally Naoko Takeuchi used the codename "Mysterious 2098 Face" for Tuxedo Mask.
Unlike other versions of the series, Mamoru does not take the form of his past life, Prince Endymion, in the present but Mamoru takes a form resembling his future self, King Endymion, at the end of the Dream arc. He wears a white tuxedo, lavender cloak, and a white mask.
